Rise of Japan
• Under Shotoku Taishi, the
Japanese move towards a
Civilization closer to Chinese
model.
• After his death in 622, Taika
Reforms begin, moving
away from a centralized
government.
• The Heian Period
decentralizes the
government completely,
and there is a move to an
Aristocratic farming society
with samurai as protection.
- We don’t necessarily “call” it
feudalism, but it kinda is…
Korea
• Koryo dynasty adopted
Chinese influence to
develop a central
government in 10th Century.
• Civil service exam adopted
in 958, however, it was
limited to aristocratic
families.
• Buddhist themes originally
dominate in art and
sculpture; however,
Confucianism themes
dominate in the late period.
Vietnam
• Vietnam removes Chinese
influence with the collapse
of the Tang Dynasty.
• Chinese do not have
influence until the Ming
Dynasty.
– Unlike China, ruler is seen as
defender of Vietnamese
Independence.
• Upper Class tended to
follow Confucian ideals,
while others preferred
Daoist ideals.
The Mongol’s Influence?
• Korea
• Japan
– Tried to go over, but the
ships sank in a Typhoon
• Vietnam
– Mongols didn’t make it
that far. Supply lines
wouldn’t reach.
